she didn't live (this is a story poem that actually has many parts)

Her bag was from the nineties
But her hair was from the eighties
Didn't seem she lived to have any more babies
Grocery store on the lake
Laundry Matt on estate
She was lonely as they come
Married to Maury on at eight
Leave the lights on while she sleeps
Cause the floor always creeks
Keeps forgetting when she sleeps
It's the dog at her feet
Life as simple as it gets
Cause she forgets how to live
Most excitement in the day
Was her make up on her face
Even if it was just to see the doc at her place.
Even though she had a crush
It was never really enough
To pursue a man so wonderful
The fact he was respectable
Only made her dream harder through
shoulda coulda wouldas to
Blank conversations
Always leaving her hanging
Wondering if he thought the same in the words that he was saying.
When they talked he would smile
When she thought all the while
His time was taken by his work
Hoping he wasn't at all a jerk.
But little did she know
How far this would really go.
When he asked for her digits
For some routine test
But to her this meant the best
Most wonderful and beautiful
Thing that she could ever get.
So she smiled when he called
Only man through it all
such a lovely candidate
Possibilities for date
But bad news was too late
What started as a good day
Would soon enough be passed away
With her hand on her heart
And her heart on her sleeve
A nervous tone in voice unlike when she rehearsed.
But instead of a lovely deep voice
The devil would answer
Sorry my love but you've been diagnosed with cancer.

wow i like how u worded this i wish i was this good anyhow thnx for sharing i like the contax u wrote about XD
Thank you so much! This actually isn't the ending to this Poem. It's a very long poem that's more so a song. This is only the first part. And I too have witnessed somewhat of the same situation. I had an aunt that passed away due to cancer. It was horrible to watch as a kid. So I did somewhat draw inspiration from that sadness.
Brittney, this captured me, well done....the tone is pulling, good word flow....what an ending; did not expect that, great way to tell a tale like this....seen a situation like this, and it is tragic....good write

Thank you so much! The first line actually came to me as I watched a lady walk by me and then turned into this long poem. As well as watching an aunt be taken by cancer.
